Born to Fly

I've been telling my dreams to the scarecrow
About the places that I'd like to see
I say, "Friend, do you think I'll ever get there?"
Oh, but he just stands there smilin' back at me
So I confessed my sins to the preacher
About the love I've been praying to find
Is there a brown eyed boy in my future?
He said, "Girl, you got nothing but time"
But how do you wait forever?
And who has that much time?
And how do you keep your feet on the ground
When you know
That you were born
You were born to fly?
My daddy he is grounded like an oak tree
My momma she is steady as the sun
Oh, you know I love my folks
But I keep staring down that road
Just looking for my one chance to run
Hey, 'cause I wanna soar away like a blackbird
I will blow in the wind like a sea
I will plant my heart in the garden of my dreams
And I will grow up where I'll run wild and free
But how do you wait forever?
And who has that much time?
And how do you keep your feet on the ground
When you know
That you were born
Yeah, you were born
You were born to fly?
So how do you wait forever?
And who has that much time?
And how do you keep your feet on the ground
When you know
That you were born
You were born to fly?
Fly
You were born to fly
You were born to fly
